Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Units (PEHSU) are dedicated to increasing knowledge about children’s environmental health among health care professionals, families, schools, community groups, and anyone interested in children’s environmental health. The PEHSU offer robust expertise across many environmental health topics and interests.

If you want to learn more, ask questions, or do not see a topic you want to know more about, contact a PEHSU expert. PEHSU provide consultations on potential environmental exposures and referrals to reproductive and child environmental health specialists. Health care providers are well-positioned to deliver the education and care needed to protect children from environmental threats and to share relevant information with colleagues.
